Slower vs fast:
Sauteeing involves cooking meat using a small amount of oil or fat but you can cook the meat in its own fat or juices without adding extra oil or fat. Whereas pan frying involves heating a piece of meat quickly and frying on both sides at hot temperature. It involves using greater amounts of oil or fat to crisp the outside of the meat.

Too late now:
The thing to do for any burn, immediately, is to grab a pack of frozen vegetables or an ice pack or ice in a baggie and apply it for 15 minutes to the burned area. This will reduce the pain, limit the spread of the burn, and be of great relief. If you did not do these, or applied oil or butter (useless!), then you will have a painful area to deal with. Protect it, keep it clean and wait.

Eggs are good:
Yes, and don't feel like you need to skip the yolk, these are nutritious, too. Eggs got a bad RAP in the 1970s and 80s regarding their cholesterol content, but we now understand more about what was oversimplification of the total cholesterol content. Not all cholesterol is 'bad'!

Cool water:
Use cool/luke-warm water first to stop the burning. Leave blisters intact. Silvadene (silver sulfadiazine) cream is specifically for burns—helps cool & prevent infections—but may be by prescription only. If burn involves much of hand or other large areas, seek emergency help at once to prevent complications.

Scar healing:
Dark or red spots after injury including burns is part of the healing process and should resolve on their own with time. Moisturizing, sunscreen and not scratching are the best ways to help color improve more rapidly. Bleaching creams may result in unwanted discoloration and should not be used on a burn.

Apply ice:
Ice can help even applied later. The thing to do for any burn, immediately, is to grab a pack of frozen vegetables or an ice pack or ice in a baggie and apply it for 15 minutes to the burned area. This will reduce the pain, limit the spread of the burn, and be of great relief. If you did not do these, or applied oil or butter (useless!), then you will have a painful area to deal with.

Apply a dressing.:
Megan, you have what is probably a 2nd degree burn. They hurt! The fact that the skin covering is raised means that it is a blister, and that it is leathery means that top skin is already dead. This is good. The pain will go away soon. Take some Tylenol; and apply a clean dry dressing. Secret: ONLY tonight and tomorrow morning, apply a little steroid cream under the dressing. Frm N Saanich

If you cook it:
It is common and safe if you actually cook the raw meat. You can use a wok and call it stir fry. Where you can get in trouble is cutting raw meat on a cutting board, then cutting vegetables on the same board without thoroughly cleaning it and serving those veggies raw or in a salad.

Burnt food:
It is unlikely that any chemicals leached from a stainless steel pan that has been in use for years. The taste is more likely to be from burnt food.For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless.Practice safe sex.

Try oven fries &...:
There's really no such thing as healthy french fries but some are healthier than others. Use organic potatoes- conventional ones are loaded with pesticides! Use relatively healthy oils- coconut oil & peanut oil do well at high temperatures- olive oil isn't good when heated high. Try oven fries or roasted potatoes. See http://zestycook. Com/healthy-homemade-french-fries/ frying twice is probably bad.

Which oil? That is:
Most important to know before answering this question. If it's GMO canola, peanut, or vegetable oil, STOP! If you are using virgin, cold pressed olive oil and sauteing at low temp, that is okay! Raw, virgin coconut oil is better to put on after cooking. If the veges are browning, then that is almost frying, as you are forming acrylamides (browning) on your food and should be careful. Hope this helps.

A LOT.:
It depends on the food, but frying adds 50-300% to the calories of a dish. One of the worst examples is potatoes, with a single 300 gm baked potato at 278 calories vs. 300 gms of fried potatoes (chips, crisps, frites, French fries...all about the same), which contain 826 calories. That's 3X more!

Every time you:
Use frying "oil" there is "breakdown" of the oil into smaller molecules some of which could be harmful...In my opinion (only) if you have to "deep fry"{ use the oil ONCE and throw it away!
